ONE HUNDRED AND TWELFTH ANNUAL REPORT


At a special meeting of the tri-town school commit- tees of Avon, Holbrook and Randolph held December 9, 1947, it was voted, at the suggestion of the three voting members from Randolph, to sever the superintendency union, number 35, which is the second largest in the state. Following the annual town meeting in March, it is expect- ed that the State Department of Education, through the office of the Commissioner of Education, following an in- vestigation into the reasons for the breaking of this union, will render us a favorable reply. This will definitely es- tablish Randolph as a single school unit, employing its own Superintendent. It is the intent of the members of this Committee to employ the present Superintendent of Randolph Schools, Mr. A. O. Christiansen. In our opinion, Mr. Christiansen, with the removal of his duties in Avon and Holbrook, will be able to give full time service here to the better scholastic attainment of the pupils of the town of Randolph.


In our attempt to keep within our budget, we were confronted with a repair bill amounting to $1900, purely unexpected, ordered upon us by the Department of Public Safety of the State of Massachusetts. This bill we had to meet in order to open Stetson High School in September. We took this from other projects which we had in mind to do when we submitted our budget for 1947.


Your Committee feels that to give adequate trans- portation to outlying districts of our rapidly growing town, that we will need to expend more money for school trans- portation in 1948. While complementing Mr. Stephen J. Hart and the Eastern Massachusetts Street Railway for their excellent efforts during war time and since, we feel some improvements will be needed in the existing trans- portation set-up and time schedule.


Your Committee comments with extreme regret on the passing of our beloved School Physician and friend, Dr.


133


TOWN OF RANDOLPH, MASS.


George V. Higgins. No man has served the town of Ran- dolph in the school with any longer or more meritorious service. Whenever the School Committee had occasion to call upon Dr. Higgins relative to a problem in conjunc- tion with his physician's duties, we found him always eager to cooperate and most forward with his constructive criti- cism and suggestions. The Committee was fortunate to find in Dr. Higgins' assistant so able a man to carry on in the good doctor's place. We employed Dr. Charles E. Wells to serve at the discretion of the School Committee in the capacity of School Physician.


This year witnessed the beginning of three additional Parent-Teacher organizations, which, added to the Mc- Neill Parent-Teacher group forms a strong unit for co- operative action in the improvement of the physical and educational interests of our school system. These organ- izations, realizing the need for adequate housing for their sons and daughters, have come forward and made known their willingness to assist the School Committee in attain- ing a constructive and long-view building program.


The School Committee would like to take this op- portunity to thank the entire school personnel for their cooperation during this past school year.

ONE HUNDRED AND TWELFTH ANNUAL REPORT


Superintendent of Schools Report


Mr. Chairman and Members of the


School Committee, Randolph :


I have the honor of submitting to you my annual re- port of the Randolph public schools for the year 1947.


Notwithstanding the anticipated shortage of trained teachers throughout the state and nation, we were most fortunate in procuring a teacher for each classroom in the fall. Two factors were prominent in this achieve- ment, namely, your provision for teachers' salary increase and the return to service of married women teachers, many of whom live in this and neighboring towns. These teach- ers moreover are trained and have had years of school experience and are far more competent to take over the responsibility of instruction than many single young men and women who, with little or no educational background, have drifted in to the profesion due to the emergency.


Our total enrollment of 1786, as of October 1, 1947, shows an increase of ninety-two pupils over that of last year. This increase is noted in the grades. As large clases are often the impediment to good teaching we had to introduce the two-platoon system, one in the McNeill school and the other in the Belcher district. This condi- tion although not ideal will prevail for several years and will get worse rather than better. With the completion of the two-room addition to the McNeill school that dis- trict will return to the single session sometime in January, 1948.


In our efforts to enrich and vitalize our school cur- riculum, to study the needs and abilities of the pupil, his cultural, vocational, social and civic responsibilities, I wish


135


TOWN OF RANDOLPH, MASS.


to record briefly some results which are worthy of note. Principal Hubert F. Gilgan states that the Stetson high school has achieved excellent results in sending its grad- uates to college. A total of eight of the 1947 graduates has entered Harvard, Boston College, Fordham, Boston University, Emmanuel, Massachusetts State, Bridgewater Teachers College and Katherine Gibbs. At least three of the above pupils secured scholarships by competitive examinations besides the scholarships earned at Stetson. At present writing it is too early to hear officially from the colleges as to the qualtiy of work these pupils are doing. We have heard from one college however, to the effect that one graduate received no mark lower than a B. We have been notified by Brown University that one of our graduates has again made the Dean's list for high academic standing and has also been made a Francis Wayland Scholar. Another of our graduates at Middle- sex County (N. J.) Polio Center is being sent, as a reward for excellent work, to Columbia University for a degree. Still another graduate has been again selected for the Dean's List at Boston Universtiy for high academic stand- ing. Another Stetson girl was elected by her classmates at Emmanuel College to represent the school in "Who's Who in American Colleges."


The Vocational Guidance program under Mr. Joseph W. Daly summarizes the results of the Boston University Battery Y Test. These included reading, arithmetic, Eng- lish and an I. Q. test. This year few more weeks will be needed to give the Juniors the results of their aptitude tests. Included in the tests for Juniors were a mechanical aptitude test, clerical aptitude test, intelligence test and reading. This battery when combined with other informa- tion will be a definite aid in selecting a vocation.


The annual exhibition of work done and the achieve- ment of pupils in the subjects of music, band, art and


136


ONE HUNDRED AND TWELFTH ANNUAL REPORT


classroom activities was given last May. It was an exhi- bition of outstanding merit attested to by the cooperation of all teachers and large audiences of parents and friends. We are proud to report that four members of the Stetson high school band were selected to participate in the New England Music Festival Concert held at Brattleboro, Vermont.


It is our educational objective this coming year to unify the school work throughout the grades. Teachers and Principals are in accord and have volunteered to co- operate towards this end.


It has been a pleasure to work with the McNeill school building committee under the direction of chairman Mr. Albert P. Whitaker. The school at the time of this writ- ing will soon be turned over to the town. It will exemplify a fine piece of work, well done and a composite illustra- tion of what can be done when cooperation is the key motive. In this connection we owe much praise to the various P.T.A's in Randolph for their loyalty and common interest in this our common task to make our schools better.


We acknowledge with grateful thanks each and every scholarship and gift presented to some of our worthy graduates in June. The Knights of Columbus Lyceum Association, Inc. scholarship of $200.00 was presented for the first time last June. A new scholarship of $100.00 will be awarded this June to a graduate of the Household Art Dept. by the Ladies Library Ass'n. These with the awards of the Stetson High School Scholarship Fund Com- mittee, the Junior Ladies Library Ass'n and American Legion constitute a pledge of faith in our schools and to us who teach, a trust.


The special class or as we wish to call it "Opportun- ity Class" was reorganized after a lapse of several years, due to the war and teacher shortage. Under the helpful


. 137


TOWN OF RANDOLPH, MASS.


guidance of Mrs. Ina M. Curley, Supervisor of Special Edu- cation, Mass. Department of Education, Mrs. Angelica Vorgeas was found and immediately appointed by the School Committee. Mrs. Vorgeas is well trained for this important phase of public school work and has already produced excellent results.


We lost by death our School Physician, Dr. George V. Higgins, who had endeared himself to all connected with our schools. His many years of service have left a deep and lasting influence for good on our boys and girls. They knew him as a friend of wise and direct council al- ways given with kind understanding and sympathy.


I have appreciated fully your counsel and coopera- tion. Our teachers are loyal and at work. We have every reason to believe that such will produce results for which we are all striving.


Respectfully submitted, A. O. CHRISTIANSEN,


Superintendent of Schools


138


ONE HUNDRED AND TWELFTH ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE ORGANIZATION OF THE OPPORTUNITY CLASS Mrs. Angelica Vorgeas, Instructor


Mr. A. O. Christiansen


Supt. of Schools


The organization of the Opportunity Class began on the first day of school when all schools were visited and blanks given to the principals requesting them to consult with their teachers and recommend: (1) pupils who were three or more years retarded, and, (2) pupils who had not repeated three grades but were in need of special coaching in a particular clasroom subject. Each pupil was then observed in his classroom and notes describing his reactions, personality, and quality of work were recorded.


On Mr. Christiansen's recommendation group tests of achievement and intelligence were ordered and adminis- tered to those pupils on the principals' lists. The results were carefully tabulated and submitted to the Superin- tendent who determined from this list the pupils to be tested by the Taunton State Clinic. The home of each pupil-candidate was then visited and to each parent the aims and purposes of the Opportunity Class were de- scribed. The Taunton Clinic arrived on October 20th and the class commenced its activities on October 24th with an enrollment of fifteen pupils.


The purposes and aims of this class are twofold; (1) to coach such who have ability in respective subjects and grades and return them to the grades (last week the first pupil was returned to her grade), and (2) to instruct those who may require longer periods of training for whom much or all of the manual arts are intended. In order to fulfill these aims and to give this individual instruction,


139


TOWN OF RANDOLPH, MASS.


more materials and equipment will be necessary. It is hoped that vocational instruction and domestic arts in- struction may be included as soon as possible.


May I extend my appreciation to the principals and. to Miss Helen Conlon our school nurse for their kind co- operation and to Mr. Christiansen whose guidance and generous assistance were always graciously available.

All children in grades one, four, eight and twelve were given a physical examination by Dr. Charles Wells, during the school year. Parents were notified of remedial defects found.


The mobile unit from the Norfolk County Hospital came to our High School in January and X-rayed the en- tire Senior class, also pupils who assist in the lunch room and many of the teaching staff.


Clinics for the prevention of diphtheria were con- ducted by the Board of Health in April, May and June. Seventy four pre-school children and fifty seven school children were immunized against diphtheria by Dr. Georg V. Higgins assisted by Dr. Charles Wells.


141


TOWN OF RANDOLPH, MASS.


In October, eleven children were given psychiatric tests by Dr. Olga Steinecke of the State Department of Mental Health. Recommendations for these children were sent to the office of the Superintendent of Schools.


The Physically Handicapped census was taken in October and four new names were added to the list. Two of these children were able to attend school. Arrange- ments were made for one child to receive instructions in her home from a visiting teacher. Three other children continued to have the services of a visiting teacher.


May I take this opportunity to thank all in the school system for their assistance and cooperation during the past year.

ONE HUNDRED AND TWELFTH ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIAN Charles E. Wells, M.D.


Mr. A. O. Christiansen, Superintendent of Schools


In March, 1947 Dr. Higgins asked me to assist him by doing the routine physical examinations of pupils in all schools which he was unable to do. With the help of Miss Conlon the pupils in the first, fourth, eighth and twelfth grades were examined before the end of the school year. These examinations are being continued during the pres- ent school year, so that approximately half the pupils will have been given physicals by the end of the school year, thus carrying out the recommendation of Mr. Gilgan in his 1946 report. Up to the Christmas vacation, 378 such examinations were made. The results are very gratifying indicating that parents are giving proper attention to the health of their children in most cases.


There were no serious injuries to players during the football season, thanks largely to the excellent supervision by the coach. The candidates for the basket ball teams have recently been examined and found to be in good physical condition.


The check on pupils who have been absent for three school days is being continued and has resulted in bring- ing to the attention of parents many minor and some more serious conditions requiring medical attention. Certifi- cates giving permission to return to school had been issued in 468 such cases up to Christmas.


I wish to thank the School Committee for the oppor- tunity to carry on the work of school physician; the super- intendent of schools, school nurse and teachers for their hearty cooperation.


Respectfully submitted, CHARLES E. WELLS, M.D. School Physician

NO-SCHOOL SIGNALS


By courtesy of the Randolph Fire Department, three blows repeated three times will be sounded at:


6:45 A. M. No session for Senior and Junior High Schools.


7:15 A. M. No morning sesion for the first six grades.


11:30 A. M. No afternoon session for the first six grades.


By courtesy of the WNAC, WBET and WJDA Broad- casting Stations, no-school announcement will be given by radio as near to the local hours as is convenient and pos- sible for the station announcer.


There will be days when schools are in session because conditions are not severe enough to cause complete shut- down of all activities. On such days, parents, as in for- mer years, determine whether their children shall report to school. No excuse will be required of pupils for ab- sence on such days unless the parent so wishes. Consid- eration will be given pupils striving for perfect attendance.


*It is essential that we keep in mind that State Law requires that the High School shall be in session at least 180 days of each school year, and for the grade schools, 160 days.
